This weekend Shawplan are at Scalefour North, at the Queen Elizabeth Grammar School.

We have also taken the time to update our 2014 fixture list https://shawplan.wordpress.com/exhibition-diary/ where you can find which exhibitions we are attending this year. Its been a busy year already one way and another, and we’ll provide further updates on new products soon. If you’re unable to get to Scalefour North, we are at the York Model Railway Show over the easter weekend. We hope to see you at either or both shows!

Just a quick update, this weekend its the Warley Model Railway Show at the NEC in Birmingham.
We’re there on stand D36, come and see us. The header picture is of a ViTrains class 47 which has been modified using components manufactured and supplied by us.

We often get asked how to use or apply some of our etches and in this months Railway Modeller, Paul Marshall-Potter http://albionyard provides step by step instructions on this particular model.

This weekend we are at one of your busiest shows, DEMU Showcase. In the run up to the show we have been working on new products and these cab roof vents are one of the new items we hope to have for showcase.

We’ve designed them so they fold up from a one piece etch which automatically forms two fixing pins to help fix them to the cab roofs.

Come and have a look at these and our other ranges this weekend, we look forward to seeing you there!

This weekend we are at Railex in Aylesbury, and are pleased to announce some new items.
Following on from our last entry we have included some new laserglaze products and there are also new releases in our extreme etchings range. The images below shows our components used on a Hornby Railroad class 40, they include laser cut windows, etched headcode surround, frost grills, roof fan and grill and front cab window surrounds. What a difference it makes!

The images above are images from our final tooling testing. We anticipate all four types to be available at Expo Em. In the unlikely event that we can’t complete the tooling for this weekend, they will be available ex stock at Railex in Aylesbury 25th/26th May
